Random Horror Villains You Could Totally Beat Up (13 items)

• 

  (#3) Dr. Heiter

  • The Human Centipede (First Sequence), The Human Centipede 2 (Full Sequence)

  Dr. Josef Heiter, a retired surgeon, was famous for separating conjoined twins, eventually leading to his obsession with reversing the process. Heiter’s intellect is formidable: He can actually carry out his plan and assemble his pet centipede from three human bodies. However, his ego leads him to make small mistakes. He fails to reckon with the fact that his human captives can't be domesticated like his other pets. In hand-to-hand combat, Dr. Heiter would be easy to beat as long as you stay out of his basement and don't drink his water.

  Strength: Vast intellect and a seemingly endless supply of sedatives

  Weakness: Giant ego

  Biggest Defeat: Failing to account for his captives' intelligence
• 

  (#2) Minnie Castevet

  • Rosemary's Baby

  Minnie Castevet from Roman Polanski’s Rosemary’s Baby is a devil-worshiping old woman who, with the help of all the tenants of the Bramford apartments and Rosemary’s husband, arrange for Rosemary to be supernaturally impregnated. In retrospect, if she weren't manipulated and drugged, Rosemary could have easily just knocked the frail Minnie down and run away.

  Strength: Allied with the Prince of Darkness and appears to be above suspicion

  Weakness: She is literally a little old lady

  Biggest Defeat: She is undefeated
• 

  (#13) Pinhead

  • Hellraiser Franchise

  A creature from another dimension sent to explore pain and pleasure - yet no longer able to separate the two - Pinhead was once human. More intelligent and articulate than many horror villains, he can be bargained with. Given that he starts out trapped in a magnetic puzzle box (the Lament Configuration), the simplest way to deal with Pinhead is to just not solve the puzzle and leave him there.

  Strength: Can cross dimensions and detect lies

  Weakness: Stuck in a box

  Biggest Defeat: Banished when a foe "opens" the puzzle box backwards
• 

  (#6) Ghostface

  • Scream 3, Scream 4, Scream, Scream 2, Boogeymen: The Killer Compilation

  Ghostface, the iconic masked stalker from the Scream franchise, is all presentation with little follow-through. In a face-to-face battle, anyone with a rudimentary knowledge of martial arts could hold their own - it's a regular human behind the mask, after all. Just avoid the blade.

  Strength: Spooky mask

  Weakness: An obsession with Sidney Prescott (Neve Campbell)

  Biggest Defeat: Deciding to wear that ridiculous robe, which could get caught on anything

   
• 

  (#12) Candyman

  • Candyman 3: Day of the Dead, Candyman

  Candyman is the ghost of an artist who was the son of a slave, and was brutally killed in the late 19th century by the family of his lover, a white woman. He appears to his targets after they say “Candyman” five times in a mirror - which gives us a really good idea of how to avoid him altogether. But, assuming that ship has already sailed, what's the best way to fight him off? Set a honey trap for his bee-filled belly, or better off, just avoid mirrors. 

  Strength: Righteous anger and bees in his chest

  Weakness: People who avoid mirrors

  Biggest Defeat: Destroyed by fire only to have his role taken over by a grad student
• 

  (#9) The Entity From 'It Follows'

  The Entity from It Follows is a living curse with supernatural stamina and strength. It can only be seen by those who possess the curse, and it's relentless; it also seems unable to take lives because it’s ultimately a curse and not a physical being. But the entity is essentially just an STD, following targets who have intercourse with someone. One way to eliminate a curse is to pass it along to someone else. Alternately, since the entity can only walk at a slow pace, you could outrun it just by maintaining a brisk pace all day long.

  Strength: No corporeal form that can be attacked

  Weakness: Moves really slowly

  Biggest Defeat: Fired at in a swimming pool
